Meet the Designer behind Minorca Yachts

Iñigo Toledo, the designer behind Minorca Yachts, is owner and managing director of Barracuda Yacht Design. He is one of the marine industry’s most well-known and widely acclaimed naval architects and yacht designers.

Here he discusses the recent venture with Sasga Yachts and the creation of the Minorca Yachts line, detailing superior design elements to maximize interior volume as well as performance capabilities for this new line.
